Rodrick likes to think he's a pretty tough guy. Between being born and raised on the rebellious messages of pop punk music, and the nonconforming ideologies of emo and other alt subcultures, Rodrick knows in his bones that he'll never let the man break his spirit. He'll never bow down to someone just because they want him to do something. He's had countless opportunities to stand by these beliefs at school and at home, and he has never - not once - come close to doing anything for someone simply because they want him to. Rodrick has been confident in his ability to never give into other people’s orders, no matter how much they demand of him. 

Until now.

“Pretty please, Roddy…?” You pout your glossy lips at him, blinking up at him and batting your doll like eyelashes, and that’s all it takes to make him fold.

“...I guess, if you really-” He’s cut off by an excited squeal from you, and he’s glad that you’re too distracted to notice him blush. Rodrick has never felt his willpower give in so fast, but as he watches you rush around your room and smile, delighted that he’d agreed, he realizes that he’d do pretty much anything you tell him too. Ben and Chris would call him a pussywhipped simp, but… no, that’s pretty much it. He chuckles a little at the thought, watching the pile of stuff grow. He recognizes nail polish and tweezers, but that’s about it.

“Thank you thank you thank you!” You say, rambling happily as you settle down on your bed across from him. “I’ve been wanting to do self care stuff but I’ve done so many everything showers and self care nights there’s nothing left for me to do on myself. But you…”

You take his face in your manicured hands, moving him around to inspect more closely.

“You are in serious need of a facial.”

Rodrick doesn’t really process what you’re saying, he just loves when you touch his face like that. 

“...Uh, yeah totally.” He mutters absentmindedly, distracted by your sweet smell. After a moment, he processes what you said, and chuckles, leaning back into your silky pink pillows. “Babe, you can do anything to me, anywhere, anytime.” 

You giggle, feeling your face flush a little as you get all your stuff organized. Rodrick runs his hands up and down your waist, fidgeting with your soft fluffy pajama shorts and big loded diper shirt you wear all the time. He sees the little burn marks and worn out hems and realizes it’s the one you stole from him. He smiles softly, loving the way you look in it even more now. His attention is pulled back to you when you push something over his face, brushing his hair back. You adjust the fluffy cat ears on the headband, making sure you have access to his whole face. Rodrick giggles a little, knowing he must look a little out of place wearing a pierce the veil shirt and fluffy kitty cat headband. 

“I don’t think my forehead has been this exposed since like, 4th grade…” he chuckles.

“That’s good, you’ll have less sun damage that way.” You smile, putting some micellar water on a cotton pad. It’s a little cold to the touch, but after a moment, the feeling of you gently wiping over his face and neck ends up being way more relaxing than he had expected it to. You throw it away, and he hears it land in your trash can with a crinkle. 

“I’m gonna mist your face now, okay?” You say, and he nods. You spray rose water on his face, and Rodrick can’t get over how considerate you are to give him a heads up like that. Rodrick smiles a little as he adjusts to the subtle floral smelling facial spray he’s used to smelling on you. He basks in the quietness of your room, opening his eyes as he watches you sitting on his stomach and looking for the next product. You hesitate for a moment. You feel like something’s missing, but you can’t put your finger on it.

“Oh,” you say, reaching for your phone as you remember. You open up Spotify, and put your favorite playlist on shuffle - the one you and Roddy share. It’s full of both your favorite songs, mostly boiling down to early 2000’s pop punk and trashy pop. It’s chaotic but really does suit you both perfectly.  Rodrick smiles suddenly as he instantly recognizes the opening notes of Jesus of Suburbia begin to play. You take out your favorite serum, jasmine and blackberry hydrating jelly, and place a few drops around his face. 

“What’s that one?” Rodrick asks, picking up another bottle. 

“Hyaluronic acid.”

Rodrick looks at the little dropper bottle.

“Does it, like, melt the flesh right off your bones?” 

“No…?” You chuckle, massaging his cheekbones and jawline with your fingertips.

“Then why is it called hydroponic acid?” He asks rhetorically, “Acid is supposed to melt shit.”

You laugh again, and he makes a mental note to sample your laughter for a song at some point in the future. He doesn’t know which one yet, but he knows it will be his best one yet. 

You rub some cooling aloe vera gel into his skin, then take out your rose quartz gua sha stone. You tap your fingertips against his chest, and he looks at you with an amused smile.

“What does that do?”

He watches you work, eyes locked on you. He can’t remember the last time he felt this relaxed and peaceful. 

“I’m prepping your lymphatic drainage system.” 

That clarified absolutely nothing for Rodrick, but he trusts you implicitly. You’re so good at so many things, but Christ, you could write a book on all that girly beauty stuff. It’s way more hardcore than people think it is. You know about all these acids and drainage systems and the pink rock thing, and even though he’s impressed, he’s not at all surprised by how good you are at all this stuff.

You begin gently gliding your gua sha over Roddy’s skin, working from his forehead down to his neck and jawline. He stops talking as you work, and it’s like you melt all of the stress out of his body through his face. He could fall asleep with you touching him so gently like this. After a while you rub some more cream into his face, then place something under his eyes that feels like thinly sliced jello.

“What the fuck?” He asks, bringing another laugh out of you. He watches you take two more of the weird jelly things and put them under your own eyes.

“They’re under eye masks.” You answer with a chuckle. “They hydrate your skin, depuff, and get rid of dark circles.”

“Huh…” he hums in response, playing with the patches as they sit on his face. 

Once you’ve used half your arsenal of skincare products on him, you peel off his sheet mask and let him sit up. You hand him a mirror, and as he sits up and stretches a little, kind of wishing you had more to do, he feels like he just woke up from the best sleep of his life. 

“So? What do you think?” You ask excitedly. He can’t help but crack a smile at how cute you are. Rodrick takes the mirror you offer him. When he sees his reflection, he almost doesn’t recognize himself. 

“Oh my god…” he says with a soft smile. He’s glowing. He doesn’t think he’s ever looked this soft and moisturized and… cared for before. He doesn’t even have any crusty eyeliner from yesterday smudged around his eyes. He can never get it off all the way, but one wave of your magic wand, and it’s gone. He laughs again, touching his cheek. He looks up at you in surprise.

“My face is so smooth…” “I know!” You exclaim in delight. “So, do you like facials after all?”

You have a feeling you already know the answer, but Rodrick looks up at you anyway.

“Yeah,” he states, pulling you in for a kiss, his lips soft and exfoliated, topped with your favorite strawberry lip balm. You think Rodrick is right, it does taste better in a kiss. After he pulls away, it takes him a minute for his brain to stop short circuiting. 

“So… uh, are we doing this again next weekend?” 

You laugh at his hopeful tone of voice, how he raises his eyebrows a little. 

“Yeah.” You nod, taking him in for another kiss. You take his hands in yours, looking at the stick and poke tattoo he got of the heart you drew on his hand in chemistry class, his little calluses from drumming. “Next week I can do something about your cuticles.”

Okay okay okay but Emily in Hell, does that mean new Pokemon partner/buddy since Absol is kind of the custody Chaggie-with-Emily-on-the-side child? My Pokemon lore is admittedly rusty but imagine Emily finding a new Pokemon partner in Hell, maybe a skittish Ponyta or something similar!

i love to cause Lute comedic HArm, and to imagine Emily smiling happily while ppl back away in fear.... so for her own personal pokemon im picturing...

Mankey

Soon to become an enraged Primeape the moment it spots the real Lute in real life (and starts chasing her), after Emily spent so much time calmly explaining the Lute situation to it while helpfully showing pictures of Lute on her phone ^w^

Emily: (lovingly hugging her new pokemon buddy) "And this is Lute the first time she attacked and ripped off the wings of my wife-in-law Vaggie...."

Emily: (swipes next pic) "....annnnd this is her trying to gouge out Vaggie's OTHER eye...

Emily: (swips again) "Here's Lute covered in blood after cutting off some of my wings..."

Mankey: "rrrrrRRRRRRRRRGHEEEE-"

-

Lute: "GET YOUR DAMNED POKEMON OFF ME YOU FILTH!"

Emily: "Aww, be not afraid~ Primeape doesn't hurt people~"

Lute: "YES IT- OW OW- DOES!!!"

Makeys get brought to the Pride ring for their fighting skills pretty often, but Emily's actually came of it's own free will from the other parts of hell

Chaggily's Absol stepped on it in the rush to jump through an open gate and into Pride right before Extermination day, once, and the Mankey has been chasing it down ever since. It was a background game of cat and mouse for the years until Emily arrived. Charlie had no idea what was going on. Vaggie knew but respected Absol's right to fight this battle on their own (they shared a solemn nod over it, while the Mankey banged on a hotel window from the outside and SCREECHED)

Emily spots it trying to break in one day while recovering (since it is obsessed with the Absol and the Absol won't leave Emily's side right now), and she lets it in, and hugs it before it can start beating up on the Absol, and while hugging it Emily starts talking to try calming it, which turns into Emily talking about the hell situation, which turns into Emily VENTING to the Mankey while squeeeeeeeezing it tighter and tighter like a full body stress ball- she only realizes the Mankey is out cold unconscious from strangling when the Absol puts a paw on her arm.

One very frantic Emily later the Mankey is revived. Is it angry at her now??

No. It thinks that was super impressive and very cool and it vibes with her pent up rage SO hard. It will even forgive the Absol, if that's what it takes for it to stay with Emily.

The two becoming physically inseparable. If the Mankey isn't sparring with Vaggie and the Pidove or posing dynamically for Charlie's adoring scribbles while holdings still through the Houndoom's equally adoring slobber kisses, then it's clinging to Emily like a living backpack of love-fueled potential violence just waiting to Explode

Sometimes the old scarred Absol steps on it deliberately, just for fun, and the Mankey (later Primeape) will chase it's old foe turned enemy around the hotel (usually causing havoc) for old time's sake while Emily smiles and hopes everyone else can figure out how to get along so well too someday~

(Emily will still sic her Primeape on Lute every chance she gets tho)

Was your resolution to drink more water this year? Are you kinda struggling? May I suggest: ✨Hibiscus tea bags✨

Your eyes see "aw yiss motha fuckin juice" and your body is like "blessed H20 in disguise? Sign me the fuck up." No caffeine so you don't have to worry about being Wired just before bed.

"But tea tastes bad!" you might say. So put a pump of simple syrup in! Who's going to stop you? A sugar cop? They bitch and moan about whole fruit what the fuck do they know about anything. A tablespoon of simple syrup (that's two pumps from Starbucks for reference but definitely make your own) has thirty-six calories. You burn that in seven minutes of breathing you'll be fine.

One of my favorite things to do is just fill my 32oz water bottle up and drop a teabag in it. (I do have an embarrassing "shakey shakey tea I makey" dance but that's because I've decided I love joy.) Sure it tastes different throughout the day as it disperses into different amounts of water but it doesn't get bitter if you use it too long like some teabags.

Now obviously this is not going to work for everyone. But it might work for someone which is why I'm sharing it. Sometimes drinking more water is hard, so you have to want to do it! If this is just a step on your hydration journey to get in the habit of drinking more before making a switch to plain water that's fine too! Change doesn't have to be miserable.

How specifically does Lu Ten survive in the au?

The short answer: his betrothed.

The long answer: in this au, Lu Ten is betrothed at quite a young age to Makei, a noble woman's only daughter. They're both nonbenders, who both train separately to be equally deadly (Lu Ten under Piandao, and Makei under a retired Yuyan archer by the name of Izuki) and are probably each others only real friend at court, just due to the cutthroat nature of the court.

They both go to the siege of Ba Sing Se, probably a year into it, Lu Ten is an officer and Makei is a healer. They are very quickly disenfranchised with the whole idea of The War.

This is mostly because they were both very lonely children, Lu Ten moreso. When Lu was little, his mother was dead, his father was off at war more often than not and there were very few people who were consistently around him (Ursa would be around a bit but since Ozai does not want to be around him, even that's limited), but he made his loneliness better by basically saying that Winning The War will make it all better.

Newsflash: the war sucks and when fighting it begins to feel entirely pointless, and Lu Ten is very quickly like...oh. My childhood just sucked for No Reason.

(Listen, Iroh loved his son but I am of the firm belief that their relationship was not an easy one)

And then, Iroh dies on the front lines. Maybe Lu Ten should have been the one to die then - he certainly came close - but Makei is a skilled healer who makes sure he pulls through. But Lu Ten is neither the leader his father was nor someone who wants to be, and the siege is called off.

Still, he's angry and bitter and has a burning hatred for the war for taking his father from him in so many ways (and, later, when he's spent time among the earth kingdom, he'll be angry for them too), and when he returns to the palace, he does not exactly go along with everything Ozai has to say...

By which I mean he does multiple kidnappings but that's another post.

💐Zombie's Bouquet Event💐

A bouquet for you! Featuring: Jake Jensen, Grumpy/Sunshine, Flower Shop, Fluff. I hope you enjoy!

+++++++

"Jaaake," you whine. "I told you I don't want to go anywhere. It's been such a crappy. I just want to curl up in the blankets and stay wrapped up."

"And that's exactly why I'm taking you outside, Brandy" he counters. "Besides, I've got a pleasant surprise for you."

As much as you want to keep arguing, you really can't deny your sunshine-golden-retriever boyfriend. One of the things you genuinely loved about him was how he could keep you going, even through your depressive episodes. He always seemed to know just the right amount to push versus even you needed to be held.

"Fine, but we're getting comfort food while we're out."

"Of course!"

Jake and up taking you to a local flower shop. You're surprised at the choice of locale, it's definitely not a usual place for the two of you.

Jake picks up on your confusion as he leads you inside. "I figured some color might help brighten the apartment. And while I get the joy of looking at your pretty face every day, you deserve something pretty to look at as well."

Inside the store you take a deep breath and find the various floral scents calming in a way. You look around at all the colors and shapes. Jake assures you there's no price limit, that you can get all the flowers you want.

You're almost giddy thinking about the various combinations you can make. You delay your shopping long enough to give Jake a big, grateful hug that he's only too happy to return.

oh!! oh!! whoever requested this for me, bless you 🥺🫶🏻✨️🪻🪻🪻<- bookay for you and zombie!!!

jakey wakey bakey makey pakey takey makey beloved baby boyyyyy 😚😚🥺 he's so right, i need some fresh flowers and nice smells and the world will be fine again <33

give me a minute — lizzy mcalpine, and the soundtrack of any crazy ex-girlfriend season of your choice

give me a minute

my favorite lyric: every house looks the same in my dreams/every house feels like home for a couple weeks/i've been running 'round trying to find a place where i can breathe

my favorite song: pancakes for dinner

the song that makes me cry: nothing/sad 'n' stuff

the song that’s a fucking bop: over-the-ocean-call (it's not necessarily a bop because it's not a bop album? but that song is so vibey!)

the song i most dislike/least love: you, love (interlude) (kinda cheating because it's such a lovely album!!!)

CXG! let's do season two?!

my favorite lyric: the entirety of (tell me i'm okay) patrick lol

my favorite song: the math of love triangles, but i also think let's have intercourse is one of the funniest pieces of outright satire they ever did (same with i go to the zoo in S3, something about nathaniel...)

the song that makes me cry: it was a sh*t show (out of context that sounds so funny) and also rebecca's reprise

the song that’s a fucking bop: we'll never have problems again!!!

the song i most dislike/least love: makey makeover

[larz-barz]

[sapphic-outlaw]

Couple of horse/outfit matches lol ♥ The blue and brown outfit is my all time favorite - it's followed me through all of my accounts, starting with my very first account on PS4. It's changed a little over time, but my ex helped me put the majority of it together, and even though they were very cruel to me at the end and kinda wrecked me emotionally, I'm still very grateful that they helped me. Blue and brown is my favorite color combination and I love this outfit! I think I bought this horse for the first time on one of my R* launcher accounts that sadly ended up getting stolen, and I couldn't recover it. His name is The Corinthian and he's a blue roan Missouri fox trotter. Honestly, I'm not a fan of the MFTs, but I do think he's a pretty boy.

I actually made the second one today. I've been working on an outfit to go with my warped brindle Arabian, Johnny, for a while, but I've been in an outfit-makey mood today and put together this outfit and horse in... maybe an hour? Not sure at this point lol. The horse is a rose grey bay Arabian named Henry! He was originally going to be the plain grey Arab instead, but the pink undertones and hooves on this guy REALLY compliment the outfit well.

[caregiver-twylas-daycare]

Ya!!!! He da bestest daddy!!! :3 he makeys me vewy happy!!! -🍼

I want you to remember that any time you feel like he is busy or that your brain is telling you that he is annoyed of you. He very much does love and appreciate you!

[crowned-ivy]

Do you have any OCs? Would you share some info about them or is there somwhere to read about them?

ahhhh I have some!! also sorry for taking so long to answer, been busy with packing and moving 😩😩😩😩😩 I don't have good poctures of more at the moment because my art stuff is packed up, so I found what i had in my gallery for now. anyway, here's a few (some of the pictures are nsfw so I'll have those last) I'm going to do some short introductions, if you want to know more then just ask away heh

I have some TECHNICALLY oc's because I'm writing a book. you can check that out on Instagram @ l.francis.writes :3

First there's Faelynn!

he's a dnd character I have created, around when I was 17, and I finally got to use him for an unfinished campaign. he's a forest elf sorcerer, loves arson and his favourite spell is fireball. I would love to play him again for another campaign since I never got to properly flesh him out.

Next is Solomon Kadea

A draconic sorcerer, a prince who who on a quest to prove himself worthy of I herriing the throne. He's a bit snobbish and naive, but you can't help but love him. I've wanted to play him for a campaign but unfortunately that didn't happen so he's just there, waiting heh

Now some nsfw....

Lake Jong (yes that's Jake Long inverted lol) and Marius.

I have more drawings of Marius just not on my phone >_< but yes, Lake Jong and Marius are a college couple, very sweet and all that. I have more info on them but I don't have my notes!!!! but maybe you can see what they're like from the drawings I have ^^"

Finally, Choccymilk!

He's basically my version of the traveller from Genshin Impact ^^" i wanted to makey own version just for funsies heh

Lecture Diary week 8

This week we worked with makey makey and we got to make our own controllers that work with computer connections. I made a five-button control so I could play some of my favorite games on it. Those being Haunt the house of Steam and a block game on Coolmathgamesforkids. I used to play it all the time back when I was in middle school. 

I really liked being able to connect the wires to the controller and make things specific to the game I wanted to play. 

I’ve always loved having a controller made for a game. I know some see it as wasteful but, that’s only if you can’t fix the controller and need to buy a new one every time it breaks instead of fixing it.

My Boss Made Me Post This

A Promotion in Name Only

My company watched me restructure my team and successfully manage it through an acquisition. Recently, I was promoted to a senior director position. I was formerly managing relative newcomers in my field. Now, I am managing senior managers. As the weeks passed, I never received an official offer letter or had a discussion about a raise. I did, however, have conversations about transferring my responsibilities and taking over my new ones immediately.Nearly two months later, I received my official offer, with no increase in salary, bonus or deferred structure. I have voiced my displeasure with my direct supervisor and with human resources and was told that no salary increases will be discussed until next year. I asked my supervisor to go back to the C.E.O. and C.F.O. with this. I still haven’t signed the offer letter. I am paid a decent salary with decent benefits, but well under my market value. I am in the process of buying a house as well. Do I keep pressing, do I continue not to sign, do I go full scorched earth, do I rage-apply like there is no tomorrow?— Anonymous, New YorkIn an ideal world, all promotions would come with raises, but we do not live in an ideal world. You are entitled to your displeasure because this is a displeasing situation. With increased responsibilities and a new title, there should be increased compensation, but there is little you can do to compel your employers if they are unwilling.You must decide how to proceed. If they have made clear no salary increases are on the table right now, I’m not sure how productive pressing the issue will be. You can build a strong case by articulating how you restructured your team and managed the acquisition, but they probably are aware.Persistence is a virtue until it isn’t. Are you willing to wait until next year for a potential raise? Do you like your job enough to sign the offer letter and see what happens? Are you angry enough to find a new job? If you cannot live with this, yes, rage apply for positions that will offer you the compensation and professional consideration you deserve. I wish you the best of luck.

Resentment Does Not a Meal Make

I have been with my company the longest of any employee. I helped build the organization from scratch. Years ago, I decided to work part-time due to a disability. I also got special permission to work remotely. After the pandemic, the entire company went remote. Recently, there was a push to lower the workweek hours for morale and work-life balance. All full-time employees are now paid full-time but are only expected to work around 30 hours, and projects are assigned to match this new philosophy.I was not given a raise and my hours remain the same. I love what I do, and I love my co-workers, but I can’t stomach the pay discrepancy. For example, junior colleagues are making about $20,000 a year more than I am for what is now the same amount of work. We don’t have a human resources department, so I brought up the imbalance to my supervisor. She agreed it was not right. She said the company could not afford to fix it at this time but would look into fixing it next year. This was a massive oversight with very real consequences. I am newly pregnant, and money is obviously more important to me now. Is this ethical? Is this legal? How can I eat my resentment in order to stay?— AnonymousEthics come up a lot in the questions I receive for this column. People in exploitative work situations want validation that something terrible and unethical is happening. Let me assure you that this is not ethical; it is also not at all fair. Your supervisor has acknowledged how unfair this imbalance is, which is symbolic, but doesn’t resolve the significant pay disparity.If your employer can afford to pay everyone else in your organization a full-time salary for working 30 hours a week, they can afford to pay you a full-time salary for working 30 hours a week. Why does everyone else’s morale matter and yours doesn’t? There is no excuse for this, and you should not eat your resentment so they can continue to do something so egregious. Consult an employment lawyer with expertise in disability law, because I suspect that on grounds of disability alone, you have legal recourse. I hope your employer rights this wrong, and soon.
